Candlewood Suites Wichita East By Ihg

“VERY NICE!!”

I enjoyed my stay because this is a beautiful hotel! It is very clean and well kept. The staff is extremely friendly! I also like the fact that there is a bar and grill across the parking lot. I definitely recommend staying at this hotel! I'll stay again if I visit Wichita.

“Clean”

Our room was clean. My husband and I liked the glass elevator upfront. We were told to make sure we lock up our car at night. That’s something we always do however there were signs to lock up all around the parking lot. Don’t think it’s a good neighborhood.

“It was fine, but if you're planning to cook, here are details pertaining to the kitchen”

Stayed here over Christmas due to its close proximity to my family's home in Andover. I liked the idea of having a kitchen in which to cook breakfasts and save a little money.

Stayed here over Christmas due to its close proximity to my family's home in Andover. I liked the idea of having a kitchen in which to cook breakfasts and save a little money. First things first: I assumed the room would have a Keurig machine, so I brought my own coffee pods. I would soon be completely bummed to learn that the room, instead, had a 4- cup Mr. Coffee that requires the small basket filter and ground coffee. Plan accordingly! We were in a King 1-bedroom suite #317. The stove is a two burner electric cooktop with a touchpad control system and safety lock. I couldn't figure out how to use it, so I called down to the desk using the landline on the nightstand. Fast busy signal. Phone didn't work. Mkay. Called the front desk on my mobile to ask how to use the stove; she told me she would send someone up to show me. Not sure why she couldn't just tell me over the phone, but whatever. The person she sent never actually showed up, so I figured it out myself. You have to hold down the button w/the key icon for a few seconds to turn off the safety thing, then you have to hold down the power button to turn it on, they you hit the plus sign for the burner to the desired heat you want. But cook fast, because that safety feature will kick in and the stove will shut off as you're cooking. This room did not have some fairly important tools: no spatula, no tongs, no ice trays. The stove is situated literally right up against the left side of the fridge, so it's hard to use if you're right-handed - not a lot of space to move your hand around. The one frying pan was stainless steel and disgusting. I had to scrape off burnt bits and scrub it to get it clean enough to use. Not really non-stick. The kitchen is equipped with a dishwasher; I didn't use it, though, I hand washed the dishes and used it as a drying rack. As for the rest of the room, the king bed and pillows were super comfy, the room in general was clean. They give you full bottles of Dove brand shampoo/conditioner/body wash in the shower. All in all, the stay was fine - it's not like we hung out here all day - we only slept here and ate breakfast. The rest of the time, we were gone. I will probably try a different property next year, though.
